So, tried the HTTP version. It does give results for all keywords I threw at it. Somehow it resembles Google so much (hmmm...), only thing is Wikipedia results tend to not appear as top results. Trust issue aside, this search engine (at least for the regular version) is usable. Me? Nah, I hate the double indexing layout.

I'm wondering if, after my posting about it, too many people were using it, and/or for dodgy reasons, & they have shut it off ? Interestingly, http://darknet.lookseek.com is still up & working though !
